After yesterday’s experience with Midwest Airlines and their customer service I needed a little pick-me-up.
This editorial cartoon made my day:

Today I had one of those “I’m so putting this in my blog” moments. Actually it was more like an hour, which is waaay less than my sweet little sis’ RC had to sacrifice to deal with the same issue. But I’m rambling…

Okay, so picture posting didn’t go as I had planned. UGH… But they’re up. My apologies that they are small. It was either that or really, really big.
